Example sentences for: afferent

How can you use “afferent” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Those afferents that exhibited a pause in discharge frequency as the extrafusal fibers contracted ("silent period") were classified as muscle spindles [ 24 25 ] . Primary muscle spindles were differentiated from secondary muscle spindles with the satisfaction of at least two out of three criteria tested on every afferent: 1) a conduction velocity > 75 m/sec; 2) an increase in discharge frequency at 100 μm displacement reflecting a low stretch threshold; 3) an abrupt decrease in frequency discharge at the end of stretch that returned to L init static discharge levels.

  • The program was designed to provide the instantaneous frequency of the afferent spikes at the corresponding amplitudes of the displacement motor that produced the muscle stretch.

  • The discharge of the afferent was recorded throughout the stretch.

  • In particular the horizontal canal receives a rather dense afferent and efferent innervation in Brn3c null mutants.

  • Some DRG neurons that were immunostained for MIF also co-contained the neurotransmitter substance P. Our findings of MIF in DRG neurons confirm earlier observations in the embryonic mouse [ 19 ] . However, our findings of MIF protein in afferent neurons in the DRG that also contain substance P represent a novel finding in the adult rat.
